The EXT1 and EXT2 Inputs

The WZ

3

20S provides two additional stereo inputs for signals such as

effects returns, sub mix sources, sound effects and CD players. EXT1
features a fader and independent sends to auxes 1 to 4. EXT2 is a
simple input that routes direct to the LR mix through the TO LR switch.

EXT1 AUX SENDS

The signal can be routed to Auxes 1 to 4.

These sends are not affected by the EXT1 fader which returns the
signal to the LR mix. The stereo signal is summed to feed the auxes in
mono. This can be changed if preferred by repositioning internal
jumper options so that L feeds auxes 1,3, and R feeds auxes 2,4. Use
the aux sends to feed these signals to the monitors if required, for
example to add some reverb from an effects return.

EXT1 FADER

Routes the stereo signal to the main LR mix. Adjust

from fully off to +10dB maximum boost.

EXT2 RETURN

This is a simple stereo return channel that routes

to the main LR mix. The typical application is to plug in a CD or similar
playback device for walk-in or background music. It can also be used
as an additional effects return or stereo source. Adjust the volume
using the LEV control. Route the signal to LR by pressing the TO LR
switch. The green LED lights to warn that the source is routed to LR.

You can use the EXT2 input to monitor your 2-track recording. Press
the EXT2 monitor source select switch. Use the AB output to feed
your recorder. If you are monitoring while mixing live, make sure you
do not accidentally press the TO LR switch and route your recording to
the house speakers.
